i also looked into this and found out you need
downpipe
up pipe
and finally a remap
one company also recommended uprated fuel pump

also with decat will not pass MOT, what have others done?

Would appreciate any advice on this topic.

im not really looking to go as far as a remap, theres already a hks exhaust on it and air filter,just want to make the exhaust completly 'free flow' for the sound and performance.
